Of course the Fusion keyer also lets you track things in case the camera moved and the background plate has to match the move, but then we’re beyond Fusion Connect. I probably would try your method first and see if does the job, if not then revert to the Fusion keyer. Slightly more work, but with more option. Fusion reads the source clip and then renders a temporary file in a configurable folder, which Resolve uses to replace the clip with which already has an alpha channel thanks to Fusions renderer. Back in Resolve select refresh, and everything should be in place.

Somewhere along the way you get to pick the codec, the default being ProRes 4444. For that workflow, select the clip in the upper track, create Fusion Connect clip (using source footage) and open in Fusion via Resolve menu. Fusion comes with several industry leading keyers. But the despill options are limited.Īn alternate method is a Fusion Connect clip. With the composite working, I’ll move next to rendering out the background & foreground while maintaining the alpha channel.įinally, as an added bonus, we’ll continue the transparency discussion by exploring rendering out graphics that have an existing alpha channel.Īs always, if you have something to add to the conversation or have any questions please use the comments below.

After pulling the key, I’ll then show how to add an alpha output so your foreground can be composited over a background plate. So, in this Insight, I want to explore using the 3D keyer for a green screen key – mainly because of its de-spill functionality. It’s hard to believe, but even with 600+ Insights in the Library, we’ve never covered the topic of pulling a green screen key and managing transparency/alpha channels in DaVinci Resolve.
